1. Problem #1 Is Numbnutz...

This dude has long written us off...we don't exist. Yep, 51% of the American people aren't even visible to this regime...that was apparent in his actions up to and since the past election. This boy only lives in that 49% world...or should we say the 50% of that 49%...and that's what he's fighting for. A year ago, the manchild had an 80% approval rating in this group that now has slid down to 50% and that's where his "legacy" lies. This is pure pandering to the most rabid elements in his base in hopes of them carrying his water, attacking anyone who dissents (especially if your a Repugnican) and give this regime cover as it continues it pillage.

While I detest this invasion with a passion, boooshie is hell-bent on showing "us" (anyone who ain't "with him" now) his power and "strength". This is all personal now. Booooshie will not give us the satisfaction of knowing we were right all along and will play tin-star general until he's dragged out of the White House. When this "surge" fails, be assured he'll be back with yet another "plan"...I think Atrios calls these "Friedmans".

2. Thanks, I printed that and will use it for LTTEs etc.

I didn't know that Sen. Brownback came out against the Surge. Thanks for the info! I will write and thank him immediately.
